Just as Qiu Hua pronounced the name, suddenly the Night Banshee, who was pursuing, stopped, not wanting to stop, but having to stop.

From the dark forest, a figure rushed to the other party with incomparable momentum, and the heavy collision made an explosive loud sound, and the shock wave blew away the surrounding trees, and Qiuhua had to lower his body, and then the two flew out in different directions.

The figure landed in front of Qiuhua.

"Hatsu Sakura!"

At this time, Hatsu Sakura's clothes were a little torn, and it looked like she had experienced a rather difficult battle.

"Autumn ......"

Hatsuzakura leans over on all fours, quickly telling Akika about the situation while staring at the enemy.

"Miyuki!"

Qiu Hua glanced at the sky shrouded in darkness, and then quickly withdrew his gaze, no matter how anxious his heart was, he must now focus on the battle in front of him.

"How did you come here so soon?"

The Night Banshee frowned slightly unhappily, but then stretched out.

"Well, you're not a threat to me right now."

She trapped Hatsuzakura in the forest before, although it was a little unexpected for the other party to break through so quickly, but looking at the other party's appearance, you can know that its consumption is very large.

"Hatsuzakura, give me some time."

"Hmm."

Hatsuzakura immediately understood.

I saw Qiuhua open her arms, as if hugging the angel in the shape of a holy grail. "Maria" emits a light that is stronger than the previous one, and the vortex of light at its center dispels the darkness around it.

Patches of looming rose petals appear in mid-air, sometimes passing through the surrounding trees unobstructed, and if you look closely, they look like phantoms without being affected in any way, but they have a real presence, forming a space fluttering with rose petals around them.

"Rosarium."

This is the third power of the Maria.

"What is this?"

The Night Banshee surveyed the changes around her.

"Do you want to use your own power to isolate the influence of the outside world?"

The dark forest overlaps with the space of rose petals, giving a sense of paradoxical strangeness.

"But your plan isn't very effective."

Feeling the nature of it, the power coming from the Night Forest weakened, like a membrane made of water, but that's about it. The Night Forest's suppression of Hatsuzakura did not weaken because of this, and the Night Banshee herself did not feel anything unusual.

"Is this your last resistance?"

“……”

Qiu Hua didn't answer, but concentrated on holding the sword in his hand, but now the cross sword no longer had the effect of attack power blessing.

"Then let the location of your choice be your burial place."

The darkness swelled around the Night Banshee, and from the darkness came fierce spears that were more dangerous than arrows.

Autumn blossom and Hatsuzakura immediately took off into the air and leaped into the air.

But the Night Banshee had already caught up with her, flapping her demonic wings and waving her sharp-nailed hands, aiming for Qiuhua.

Qiu Hua, who could not be protected by the holy robe, raised her sword, and the heavy impact made a piercing sound, making her retreat again and again every time under the terrifying power.

The speed of the other party has surpassed her reflexes, and more often than not, she can only rely on her intuition to protect her body. Several times she was slashed, her arms, thighs and other parts were cut one after another, and blood stained her spiritual costume red.

Hatsuzakura chased after her, and the Night Banshee slammed into countless bats.

The bats scattered and drowned the two of them.

These bats have crimson eyes and sharp teeth designed to tear people's throats.

Qiu Hua swung his cross sword, and the high-speed slash tore apart the bats that were rushing towards him. And Hatsuzakura danced with her tail behind her, crushing the bats one by one.

Break through the siege of the bats, but the Night Banshee has long since disappeared into the unknown.

The two of them flew over the forest, this night forest is an enchantment-like existence, so if you don't break through strongly, you can't fly to the real high altitude, and this is already the limit.

Suddenly, a storm rolled up in the sky, and unlike Ambrose's demonic wind, it was a manifestation of the natural image of the storm.

The power of nature descended on the two of them, and a storm swept over them.

Hatsuzakura stretched out her tail, and the huge tail enveloped her and Akika.

Even the power of the natural disaster could not break through Hatsuzakura's defenses, but the two of them were blown down under heavy pressure.

At the moment when the two of them landed, the surrounding trees suddenly squirmed, and the dry and twisted branches stretched out towards the two like the claws of monsters.

In this forest full of monsters, the trees themselves are the most terrifying monsters.

Qiu Hua poured spiritual power into the cross sword, and the compressed power burst out at the apex, and the sharp sword qi swept through, cutting off the surrounding trees.

The trees fell in rows and then melted into the darkness around them.

At this moment, as if summoned from hell, the breath of death came straight towards them.

The Night Banshee's figure appeared in front of them, her long black hair fluttering around like a snake, and the lower half of her body had now turned into a snake tail.

From the beginning to the present, the Night Banshee has shown several abilities, whether it is demonic power, the power to control the storm, or the power to manipulate monsters, there is no doubt that this is the strongest of the Night Banshee.

She held a huge scythe in her hand, and the scythe condensed by the aura of death possessed the most terrifying power.

The scythe that returns all things to death swings towards Qiuhua, which is absolutely impossible for her to stop now.

But before that, Hatsu Sakura's round mirror was protected in front of Qiu Hua.

The breath of death erupted, and the living would die even if they were close, and Qiuhua seemed to be able to feel a tingling sensation coming from his skin. However, the dead qi dissipated before it touched Qiuhua.

"Is it an artifact with the power to manipulate life and death? No wonder they can block my attacks one after another. ”

The Night Banshee's gaze, with contempt for examining everything, saw through the round mirror that blocked the attack.

"It's an abomination, but how long can you stop it?"

In this Forest of Night, the Night Banshee is constantly replenished with power, which is by no means comparable to the suppressed power of Hatsuzakura.

Of course, Hatsuzakura also knew the current situation, but now she didn't have any more options.

There was a tremor in the earth, a resonance that echoed the power of the Night Banshee.

In the scythe that was in a stalemate with the round mirror, a great power came out, and the power from the earth gathered in it.

With the power that was enough to tear the earth apart, even Hatsu Sakura's strange power felt the pressure, and the stalemate between the scythe and the round mirror was about to be broken.

Before that, Qiuhua swung her sword at the Night Banshee.

The Night Banshee raised her other hand, and Qiu Hua couldn't break through her defenses with the blessing of the Red Cross Sword's attack, she didn't care at all.

"Huh?"

However, blood poured out of her hand, and a not-so-deep scar appeared on the palm of the hand that resisted the cross sword.

Although it was not serious, there was no doubt that it caused her harm.

"What's going on?"

That's when she noticed the rose petals fluttering around her, which hadn't disappeared until now. (To be continued.) )
